At 7AM I heard Elaine groaning from the bathroom. She complained of diarhea but was finding it hard to pass motion and even vomitted. I suspected food poisoning and wanted to take her to the hospital. Although the problem persisted she was still reluctant to go to the hospital. Finally I manage to convince Elaine to call Dr Loo to see what should we do next. As I expected, Dr Loo told us to see her in her clinic.A few minutes to 10AM we reached the clinic (Elaine kept running to the bathroom, problem was so bad that once we reach TDMC she ran to the toilet again.Nurses checked her BP and it was rather high 150/100 and doctor recommended her to be hospitalised (on he diarhea so that we can claim part insurance)Paid the RM800 deposit (I got an approval code ending with a 5 on a MBf merchant machine with this payment, meaning if I am first 10,000 of the month with the end-5 approval code to call MBf I can get RM100 with this)I left Elaine in the hospital to return to work after the nurse fixed the baby heartbeat monitor on Elaine's tummy. Halfway driving back to work, Elaine called and told me that Dr Loo is recommending to do C-Sect (Cesarean Section) because the baby's heartbeat dipped below 90. And we cannot try to induce because that might take almost a day and Doctor is afraid that baby might not endure the whole delivery process.We decided to do the C-Sect and I returned to the hospital and they were preparing Elaine and everything. Here I was instructed to pay more deposit. This time I paid the RM2200 deposit (with this I got another approval code ending with a 5 on another merchant machine with this payment, meaning if I am first 10,000 of the month with the end-5 approval code to call MBf I can get RM50 with this)

[If I can get the RM150 of today, I have got RM300 from them so far]

Everyone came to the operation theather to support Elaine and have also decided to close the restaurant for this one day. And the doctor allowed me to enter the operations room. Baby is born at 12.30pm but didn't cry out, until the nurse took him out and started cleaning him up a bit and sucking the fluids out of his lungs. I got so heartbroken seeing how he suffered on this process :(_______________________________________________________

This is the other babies in the nursery roomBaby is in the middle cotBaby is on the left cot in this picYup, if you did observe correctly, there are 2 boys and 2 girls in the nursery :)

Went to pick up my mum to see Elaine, as soon as the camera got filled up, and Mum have already prepared "Red Date Water". We went to Pudu to get some pails and have some food close to my restaurant, as most of the coffeeshops are closed. At night Dr Loo have given the green light for Elaine to have some porridge. At night Mum prepared more "Red Date Water"This red date was prepared because Elaine is lacking on iron so we tried to get her more iron supplement with this red date, besides the Chinese tradition :P

I'll add more with another post..... for now I am really tired and needed to rest. Tomorrow early I need to take the "Red Date Water" and breakfast(porridge) for Elaine then put in 12-14 hours at work and lastly deliver the other batch of "Red Date Water"Hopefully I can do some editing to this post while working tomorrow :P
